This paper presents the pressureless preparation of dense and crack-free near
stoichiometric SiC monoliths via cross-linking and pyrolysis of a polycarbosilane, followed …

Rare earth glasses are commonly used in lasers, sensors and radiation shield glasses. Rare
earth aluminosilicate-based glasses have been successfully used as in vivo radiation …

Powder injection moulding and sintering were used to obtain iron-based self-lubricating
composites in which SiC particles were used as precursors to generate graphite nodules …

Silicon carbide (SiC) is a promising material due to its unique property to adopt different
crystalline polytypes which monitor the band gap and the electronic and optical properties …

Fourteen rare earth elements in their nitrate form were evaluated as sintering additives for β-
SiC. All rare earth nitrates transformed to oxides by a reaction with the surface-adsorbed thin …

The capabilities of liquid-assisted laser ablation technique with additional laser irradiation of
solutions for the synthesis of SiC nanocrystals (NCs) have been investigated …

Aerospace and marine industries are constantly in search of materials that can provide good
strength and durability while also being lightweight. Aluminium composites with adequate …

Nano-SiC-based ceramic composites containing 5wt.% nano-TiN were prepared by a two-
step pressureless sintering method, and the effect of sintering temperature and nano-TiN on …

The joining of liquid-phase sintered SiC (LPS-SiC) ceramics was conducted using spark
